Sprinter Sha\u2019Carri Richardson addressed her recent domestic violence arrest<\/a> in a video on social media<\/a> and issued an apology to her boyfriend Christian Coleman.<\/p>\n

Richardson posted a video on her Instagram account Monday night in which she said she put herself in a \u201ccompromised situation.\u201d She issued a written apology to Coleman on Tuesday morning.<\/p>\n

\u201cI love him & to him I can\u2019t apologize enough,\u201d the reigning 100-meter world champion wrote in all capital letters on Instagram, adding that her apology \u201cshould be just as loud\u201d as her \u201cactions.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTo Christian I love you & I am so sorry,\u201d she wrote.<\/p>\n

Richardson was arrested July 27 on a fourth-degree domestic violence offense for allegedly assaulting Coleman at the Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. She was booked into South Correctional Entity in Des Moines, Washington, for more than 18 hours.<\/p>\n

Her arrest was days before she ran the 100 meters at the U.S. championships in Eugene, Oregon.<\/p>\n

In the video, Richardson said she\u2019s practicing \u201cself-reflection\u201d and refuses \u201cto run away but face everything that comes to me head on.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to the police report, an officer at the airport was notified by a Transportation Security Administration supervisor of a disturbance between Richardson and her boyfriend, Coleman, the 2019 world 100-meter champion.<\/p>\n

The officer reviewed camera footage and observed Richardson reach out with her left arm and grab Coleman\u2019s backpack and yank it away. Richardson then appeared to get in Coleman\u2019s way with Coleman trying to step around her. Coleman was shoved into a wall.<\/p>\n

Later in the report, it said Richardson appeared to throw an item at Coleman, with the TSA indicating it may have been headphones.<\/p>\n

The officer said in the report: \u201cI was told Coleman did not want to participate any further in the investigation and declined to be a victim.\u201d<\/p>\n

A message was left with Coleman from The Associated Press.<\/p>\n

Richardson wrote that Coleman \u201ccame into my life & gave me more than a relationship but a greater understanding of unconditional love from what I\u2019ve experienced in my past.\u201d<\/p>\n

She won the 100 at the 2023 world championships in Budapest and finished with the silver at the Paris Games last summer. She also helped the 4×100 relay to an Olympic gold.<\/p>\n

She didn\u2019t compete during the Tokyo Olympics in 2021 following a positive marijuana test<\/a> at the U.S. Olympic trials.<\/p>\n
